On Saturday, Sept. 8, Crane’s will sit back, fill a glass of delicious hard apple cider, and celebrate its fourth year as a family owned winery. This year’s party will take place in the Walnut Grove at Crane Orchard’s just down the hill from the restaurant, bakery, and winery at 6054 124th Ave., in Fennville.

CiderFest is a day full of live music, cider and wine tasting, delicious food, and great friends, as everyone is invited to join the Crane family to raise a toast. The event will last from noon – 6 p.m. and will consist of two live bands, games, giveaways, pie-eating contests, and much more! Michael Hulett will take the stage first from noon until 3 p.m. and the rock group Pretty Rage will follow up from 3 until 6 p.m. Your ticket will include a commemorative CiderFest pub glass, six tasting tickets that can be used for wine, cider, or different food options offered at the event. Your name will also automatically be entered to win some amazing Crane’s goodie baskets.

Tickets are $15 for pre-orders and $20 at the gate. You can get yours by calling 269-561-2297 or by visiting Eventbrite.com and searching Crane’s CiderFest 2018. What better way to kick off apple season than to come out to the farm in Fennville, pick some apples, eat some pie, and grab a glass of the tastiest cider West Michigan has to offer!
